You'll still sure the Cheats will go to NIT? Wouldn't surprise me one bit the committee will say this is a good loss because Clemson beat us. Until it's finalized, I won't put anything pass the committee. They have a soft spot for them

Man wouldn’t that be some sh*t. Their next five games are pretty soft so who knows. Still think tonight was the nail in the coffin though.
 
Fascinating reading IC and some of the posters just swear that it has to be effort or Hubert’s Coaching. That it just has to be something Unc can control.

Nah, here’s what I see, a talent disadvantage. Clemson has the three SSS’s, Size, Skill, Shooting. Much like Duke has, while the Heels don’t have enough of that.
 
They must take a loss from Cuse, State, V-Tech, FSU, UVA, or Miami to be out. If they win all six of those, they'll be 20-11 going into the game with us, and I think they have a good shot of making it in with a tight game or win against us. So, I don't think we can put the nail in their coffin just yet, but it's close.

Yup. If it was anyone else, they'd be done and would 100% go to the nit

Unc’s best win is against UCLA I find it hard to believe that is an NCAA Tournament worthy team
It isn't. But Joe had them as a First Four Team out after beating Pitt and losing to Clemson on the road doesn't change that. So, I think they're right there. Putting that nail in the coffin would take a bad loss and another loss from us.

They should beat Syracuse at least. This is the worst Syracuse team I can remember since I started watching ball in the mid 80s. JB had them at least on the bubble every year. They may have been around 500 the last year but still had more talent.

Duke has always been and always will be EVERYONES Super Bowl. It’s undeniable!!

Duke’s a reliable stock, almost always a solid even if unspectacular season. Heels had that rock solid stock but in the post-Dean era they tend to have much lower lows than Duke over the last three decades. Some Missed NCAA’s or double digit L seasons are sprinkled in and around their great tournament runs. The bad seasons cause the brand to slip, Mike Nike is staring down a social security check, they can’t point to the NBA as a selling point like they used to and the brand is just totally stale. It changes fan perceptions of prowess over time.

Duke is still riding high three seasons removed from the K brand. Until some stinker seasons crop up and/or recruiting weakens, the Duke brand is as formidable as ever as of this date and time.

They’ll be back though, they’ll do anything to make sure of that.
 
This Clemson team reminds me a lot of the ‘23 Miami team that reached the FF.

Built a little differently but this Tiger team is definitely capable of a deep run.

I doubt I have them in my predicted FF but I won’t be surprised at all if they reach the FF.
 
Some big games tonight in our hunt for a 1 seed (in the East preferably.)
Would be nice for Auburn to lose AT Vandy.
Would be nice for Florida to lose AT Miss St.
Would be nice for Tennessee to lose AT Kentucky (gulp)
Would be nice for Alabama to lose AT Texas.
Purdue plays at Michigan too, go Michigan. Purdue still has an outside chance if they win out.

Everyone were competing against is on the road tonight, literally everyone.

Also for the record, Bracket Matric (the best site) has us as a clear 1 seed (the #2 overall) at the moment.

They have better size than Miami though. Tigers are a well assembled team and they have a lot of bases covered. Shooting, size, skill, experience. That Russian guy was out there last night shooting like Christian Laettner. One of the announcers last night thought Clemson would be an 8 seed in the dance. That’s always possible depending on what happens the rest of the league season and because of the quality of the league, but I think they’ll ultimately get a higher seed than that.

If by chance that turned out to be right, and Clemson did get an 8 seed. Whoever the 1 seed is better watch out because that would be a very tough matchup for a 1 seed to play this Clemson team in the second round. (Assuming they won the 8/9 matchup)
